This house, which has been well-maintained, is an important feature in the landscape – located in an area that has been substantially developed from the mid twentieth century, the house forms an historic anchor in the locality. Although renovated and extended in the late twentieth century, the alterations have been carried out in keeping with the original integrity of the composition. The construction of the house in rubble stone with red brick dressings is an attractive feature on the streetscape and is complemented by a roof of unusual profile.
